Find out who really runs Britain

"A secret society? - The Jonathan Maitland show on BBC Radio 5 Live on Sunday 8 March at 1900.

Its critics say it is a secret networking organisation at the heart of the establishment, with a hidden agenda and influence.

More than 20,000 people - identified as the next generation of leaders - have attended its courses, but if you are not one of them, you have probably never heard of it.

It is called Common Purpose and prominent supporters include BBC business editor Robert Peston, Assistant Deputy Commissioner Cressida !!!!!! of the Metropolitan Police and numerous top public sector officials. Some of the courses cost as much as £5,750.

Should publically-funded institutions like the police, local authorities and the BBC pay money to a charity to host training courses which are essentially networking opportunities for staff?"

At last, the BBC takes up what has been discussed on the interwebs for years! Common Purpose has direct links to the political agenda of the Fabians, which both Clown and Blair fervently support.

The agenda is creeping super-state control of every aspect of life - with the Common Purpose 'graduates' their entryists into all parts of the Public Sector. They are pursuing this hidden agenda by any means necessary, and using political correctness to shout down objections.

    Sounds like a cult combined with expenses fiddling on jolly japes and expensive bashes. I am so unsurprised I can't even muster up an exclamation mark. Scumbags.
  • Who runs Britain now is exactly the same as it was 10, 20, 30 etc years ago - the powers that be never change no matter who is in government.

    If this thread gets moved or deleted, I will get even more paranoid about conspiracy theories.

    I read a blog on this common purpose once. The writer had made FOI requests on prominent political persons asking if public funding had gone towards course fees.

    The quick answer was yes and some of them got quite arsey about answering the request..

    The financial sector in collusion with the 'government'.

    (The International is actually quite a good film, despite the reviews – a thriller of the old-fashioned kind that touches on the subject.)
